The COST Action PCPSce explores the transformative impact of ‘Print Culture and Public Spheres in Central Europe (1500–1800)’. This interdisciplinary network aims to foster international collaboration, innovative research, and open access to historical narratives that continue to shape modern society.
Bringing together scholars working on early modern print culture, the conference will explore the diverse actors, practices, and frameworks of censorship across Central Europe between 1500 and 1800. Over the course of several days, participants will engage with a wide range of topics, including preventive censorship, self-censorship, the impact of regulatory frameworks, and the circulation of printed materials across linguistic, confessional, and political boundaries.
In addition to the academic sessions, the conference will include excursions to major cultural and research institutions, as well as opportunities for discussion and networking.
